Aston Villa star Emi Martinez might a subtle change to his hairstyle ahead of his match against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League - in a clear dig to the fans.

Martinez was heavily booed as he made his way onto the pitch at the Parc des Princes in Paris and he has bad blood with French fans from the 2022 World Cup final.

But the Argentina international simply revels in being the pantomime villain - even in the cauldron on noise that is the Parc des Princes.

And in a classic Martinez move, the goalkeeper has dyed his hair in the colours of the Argentina flag - exactly like he did during the World Cup final.

He even pulled his sock down during the warm-up to show his World Cup tattoo, then stretching his leg in front of a bloodthirsty crowd.

All eyes were on Martinez before a ball had been kicked due to his past with the French fans,

Even arriving in the city, the goalkeeper was seen wearing his international cap from the World Cup final, having caused chaos in Doha three years ago.

The Aston Villa star proved crucial as he made save after save in the final, including against Randal Kolo Muani in the last seconds of extra-time with the scores locked at 3-3.

But in the resulting penalty shootout, Martinez infuriated France with his attempts at gamesmanship, including delaying Kingsley Coman's spot-kick, which he went on to save.
